Yes all cash admissions are ours. But how many will come??? How many stewards, staff' turnstile people do we need??? Get too many and we're wasting money, too few and the messageboards moaners from 3 clubs will be having a field day!!! Same with the bar; order 100 pies and sell out in 10 minutes, order 500, nobody comes and potentially money wasted.
IMHO the worst possible fixture to start with, really could have done with a Hull or Sunderland to break us in gently!!!
Lancs Dave what's your honest view???

Not sure at the moment. There is certainly plenty of interest due to the calibre of opposition. As you say the fixtures have thrown up the worst possible one from your point of view. Estimates on our board so far range from 500 - 2000, and thats just our lot. Personally I think the Man Utd or Liverpool matches will be the biggest attendances, can't imagine there is anybody worth watching in Rovers reserves
